Comment:

 I think I know what's going on... touch_time() was expecting post_date to
 be all zeros for drafts and pending posts. But now it seems that post_date
 equals the last modified date. {{{8978.001.diff}}} switches that check to
 post_date_gmt, which seems to stay all zeros when a date is not specified.
